Several inspection and maintenance plans are defined and studied quantitatively. Analytic expressions of relevant statistics and their expectations are derived. These inspection and maintenance plans are optimized from an economic consideration.en-UKMaintenanceManufacturingFraction nonconformingEconomic designArticle
